I'm not sure, but if it ever happens again, I'll use the procedure posted by void. I reinstalled about 4 times and then when that didn't work, I restarted the PC but that still didn't work. I then shut down the PC, then restarted it. After that, it began to function normally again. Of course, I did ...

Sorry for the late reply. I checked back several times soon after posting but didn't see a reply. I've been extremely busy and wasn't able to check back since then.

Thanks. Everything is working now.

I don't know what's going on, but for some reason, right-clicking on any type of file doesn't work. I had a Windows update yesterday, so it's possible that it caused the problem.

I installed the new version, and it worked for about an hour and then stopped working again.

Jawpack

It's turned off by default. I clicked/checked on it, and Folders didn't work either. I unchecked it. Is the F2, Ctrl+C, Ctrl+V, Okay, issue a bug? I was having various issues with my other profile because of Intel and Windows updates. I would be in total shock if this is a PC problem because the rea...

I don't see Regex anywhere in Everything 1.5 Alpha build. It's disabled in regular Everything. Where would I find Regex in the 1.5 Alpha build?

Jawpack

EVERYONE BEWARE! I found out what the problem was! I have two external drives that are FAT. In regular Everything, I had to add them in Tools > Options > (Under Indexes) Folders, because if they are not added, they cannot be seen when using Everything. Then I enabled Attempt to monitor changes. What...

It's not quite working. 1. I don't know what I did, but now after hitting Ctrl+V, the list doesn't show. I then figured out that I have to use the pulldown on the right of the search box to populate the list. However, sometimes that won't work. 2. Once the list is populated and I go through the step...

Is there a way to batch search a lot of filenames that are totally different at the same time? In other words, if I have files named, A, B, C, D, E, g, etc, can I copy all of the filenames at the same time and paste them into Everything and find all of the files? I want to change the file extensions...

Jawpack

Sorry I took so long to reply. I checked back the next day and didn't see anything. Since then, I've been extremely busy. I don't see the path C:\Users\Administrator\AppData\Local\Temp even after allowing hidden files to be seen. I would be surprised if it's running as Administrator because, under t...

I followed your instructions but can't find the debug log file. I even checked my old posts to see how to get to it without using Everything since it wasn't seeing the C drive. I went in and enabled debugging but still couldn't find anything. Out of sheer frustration, I tried Everything again and no...

Jawpack

The problem still exists. As soon as I remove the C drive from the Folders section and click Apply, the entered file in the search disappears.

Jawpack

Well, for now, after a few attempts at adding the C drive into Everything via Tools > Options > Indexes > Folders, it finally added it correctly and I'm able to see files on my C drive. I don't understand why I would have to add that now. Maybe the new update messed something up? I already have two ...

Jawpack

This is really strange. I just updated Windows 10 to the latest version, 21H1.

Now, Everything cannot find anything on my C drive! I reinstalled Everything thinking that would fix the problem but that didn't work. What can I do to make it find files on my C drive?

Jawpack

Finally finished the home project. Now I can get back to normal. I'm stuck. I installed the requested programs. I ran into a problem when I got to the part with the code and "In Everything add S:\ under Menu:Tools > Options > Indexes > Folders" Where am I supposed to add that ftpuse.exe X:...

Jawpack

NotNull, In general: Your phone files are accessible in Windows as a virtual folder. The current version of Everything doesn't support that (yet; it is on the to do list). You can't see these files and folders in CMD either. That is a good check: If you can see them in CMD, Everything can see the to...

I'm using Everything Version 1.4.1.948 (x64), Win10, Android Samsung Note 9.

I'll look over the link you posted. From a cursory look, it looks a bit confusing but I'll see if I can ferret through it.

Jawpack

Everything doesn't detect files on my cellphone when it's plugged into my PC. I cannot see my cellphone even when I use Advanced Search. I can see and access it via Windows. If it matters, I have Win10. Is there a setting that will allow my cellphone to be visible in Everything?

Jawpack

Thanks NotNull! The following first solution worked!

Start Everything
Go to Menu:Tools > Options > Indexes > Folders
Click on the first configured folder (if any)
Click the Remove button
Repeat this for all other configured folders
Click OK

Jawpack

How do I go about finding out? And what do I do to change that if so. I do know that all of my drives are NTFS and not going to change that, but will change indexing if that will fix the problem. I do notice that it only happens on one of my external hard drives. But what's strange is that this is a...

Jawpack

I have a new PC and recently installed Everything. When I search for video files, some of them shows double. In other words, some of them show that there are more than one, but it's the exact same one. To make sure I wasn't misreading the path, I checked by opening the path. They open to the exact s...

Jawpack

Thanks! Awesome! One weird thing though is when I play one of the files via Everything using that syntax, the file moves to a different position when I click on it. You might have your files sorted by Run Count (you can check that in Menu:View > Sort by). Every time you start a file from within Eve...

VLC will work (works on my end) with LFN (I say LFN/SFN, but it's really Long Path / Short Path) - from an 'Open with'. (Suppose that 'Open with' acts similar to setting it as the default file handler. [I don't want to test that.]) (Similarly, suppose any set as default file handler would work on d...

Unfortunately, even with the Long Path Names registry hack, https://www.howtogeek.com/266621/how-to-make-windows-10-accept-file-paths-over-260-characters/ I still can't play those videos with certain players.

I have some video files with long names buried in several folders. Everything will not show those video thumbnail images. If I shorten the name of the file, or put it one or two folders instead of several, it will show the thumbnail images. For example: Suppose the file name has over 100 characters ...

Jawpack

Okay cool! I just DL and installed the nightly build. I'll keep tabs on it and report if something isn't right. I supposed it will be a while before a public beta version is released.

Jawpack

Oh wow!! That fixed the problem! I then deleted the debug log as you instructed.

So, is the reason that as the debug log gets larger it slows down the time that it takes to open?

What confuses me is why it only does it when a shortcut is used, and not when File > New Search Window is used.

Jawpack

Just resent the correct info.

Jawpack

Hi Void. I just sent you the verbose logging file. The issue happened again with it taking 30 seconds to open after using a shortcut to launch Everything. It opens immediately when using File > New Search Window.

I sure hope you can get to the bottom of what the problem is.

Jawpack

Oh wow. I wish I would have known that beforehand. I wouldn't have opened Everything after the failure. I'll be prepared this time in case that happens again.

Jawpack

I guess I didn't explain it properly. I need to know how to access the log that has been recording events BEFORE THE FAILURE AND SAVE IT so I can send it to you. I have no idea how to do that. I looked in the APPDATA folder and didn't see anything that looked like it was logging and saving the data....

Jawpack

Just had a problem. I'll have to send you the debug info that logs everything from when I enabled the logging feature a little more than a month ago. I think that's what's called verbose? Otherwise, sending you something from now will not help because I had to restart my PC. Windows Explorer and Win...

Jawpack

I just sent the info to the support e-mail. Just so you know, since restarting my PC a couple of days ago, Everything has been working correctly, including launching it from Winstep Xtreme. I haven't shut it down since then or logged off. I was hoping that whatever the problem is, it would happen ag...

After following the directions, the cmd box has a ton of information. I let it run for at least 10 mins thinking it would eventually stop but it appears it will not so I closed out the cmd box.

I might be doing something wrong. After opening cmd, I entered several things you listed and none of them work. I'm a little confused. Whatever I enter into the cmd box, I get the message "...is not recognized as an internal or external command, operable program or batch file. The things I ente...

Hi Void. I have an issue. I usually don't turn off my PC for days. I'm not sure if it's something on my system that is causing an issue with Everything or not. I even clean the system of unwanted junk files etc with a couple of 3rd party cleaners after the problem starts to see if it will fix it, an...

Jawpack

Thanks Void! It works perfectly!

Jawpack

I checked the settings and I don't see any way of opening a new window from the shortcut. As I mentioned in another post, I have a program I've been using for many years called Winstep Xtreme. It's a dock program. I would like to be able to bump and activate the Workshelf that houses all of the desk...

UPDATE: It's been more than two weeks since I installed v1.4.1 Beta 64bit. I can joyfully report that I haven't had any problems so far. To recap...I had two installations installed at the same time.

Thanks a lot! I just changed the settings and hope it remedies the problem. I'll post the results soon.

I tried but could not find that entry. However, I installed beta version 1.4.1 and now I can see the path without even using a mouseover.

I went ahead and installed it. Thanks therube! It appears to have fixed the problem I was having seen here: http://www.voidtools.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=5&t=5795

Everything shows that the program is up to date. I notice there is a beta available. Is this program the type that is better to wait until it comes out of beta or is there no risk in installing the beta?

Jawpack

I'm a new user of Everything. Is there a way to see the path on mouseover on a folder and file?
